It was a beautiful day here in Ventura! About 70 degrees, clear sunny skies, slight ocean breeze. We decided to break in Jack's wagon on the boardwalk by the Ventura Pier. It was very busy because, like I said, gorgeous day out. So Rob maneuvered down the sidewalk while I directed the tour. "Oh Jack, do you see the big waves? The tide is high. Last time we came the tide was low, you could see the sand. This time the water is really high. Oh, watch it hit the boardwalk and splash! Isn't that fun? Do you see the splashers?" He was so cute in his little wagon that I stepped back to take a photo with my phone when--SPLASH!! Mommy got DECKED by a wave! Don't you just love the feeling of sea-soaked jeans against your skin? NOT! Well, needless to say it was a short walk today. But we will do it again in the future. Next time I'll check the tide charts and bring a change of clothes just in case!

Better backing up for a dousing than stepping too close to the cliff's edge! Family photographer is a dangerous profession.
